<h1>Merging items</h1>
<p>The easiest way to merge together duplicate bibliographic records is to add them to a list and use the Merge Tool from there.</p>
<p>To merge bibliographic records together you will want to go to the Cataloging module and perform a search.</p>
<p>From the list, check the two items you want to merge. If you choose more than or fewer than 2, you will be presented with an error</p>
<p>If you see duplicates on that search results screen you can check the boxes next to the duplicates and click the 'Merge selected' button at the top of the results. If you choose more than or fewer than 2, you will be presented with an error.</p>
<p>Once you have selected the records you want to merge, click the 'Merge selected items' button. You will be asked which of the two records you would like to keep as your primary record and which will be deleted after the merge.</p>
<p>Once you have selected the records you want to merge, click the 'Merge selected' button at the top of the list. You will be asked which of the two records you would like to keep as your primary record and which will be deleted after the merge. If the records were created using different frameworks, Koha will also ask you what Framework you would like the newly merged record to use.</p>
<p>You will be presented with the MARC for both of the records (each accessible by tabs labeled with the bib numbers for those records). By default the entire first record will be selected, uncheck the fields you don't want in the final (destination) record and then move on to the second tab to choose which fields should be in the final (destination) record.</p>
<p>Should you try to add a field that is not repeatable two times (like choosing the 245 field from both record #1 and #2) you will be presented with an error</p>
<p>Should you try to add a field that is not repeatable two times (like choosing the 245 field from both record #1 and #2) you will be presented with an error.</p>
<p>Most importantly you want to make sure that all of the items from the two records are attached to the new record. To do this you want to make sure that all 952 files are selected before completing the merge.</p>
<p>Once you have completed your selections click the 'merge' button. The primary record will now CONTAIN the data you chose for it as well as all of the items/holdings from both bib records, and the second record will be deleted.</p>

<p>Once you have completed your selections click the 'merge' button. The primary record will now show the data you chose for it, and the second record will be deleted.</p>
<p>It is important to rebuild your zebra index immediately after merging records. If a search is performed for a record which has been deleted Koha will present the patrons with an error in the OPAC.</p>
